Ventral "Belly Cockpit" Command Room

The SONA features a high visibility ventral command room surrounded by steel reinforced glass and walls. This lower command room allows the captain to observe wrecks, beacons and artifacts with ease. The large command room contains 11 monitors that display vessel information and features in-room drone and weapons controls. With vessel controls, weapons, drone and AI controls all located within reach the command room gives the captain more control over their vessel than ever before.

Chaingun Autofire

Dual Nose Mounted Chainguns can be set to continuously fire forward to create a cone of death infront of the vessel. The chainguns can still be manually controlled while in autofire mode.

Upper Airlock

A working upper airlock seals other airlock doors and hatches when the upper hatch is open. The upper hatch will automatically close and drain when exiting. This feature is disabled when vessel is docked. If somehow left open you can force close the hatch using the RCS Command Terminal and typing: lockdown dock

Lower Moon Pool

A sealed moon pool airlock is located right outside the lower command room. The moon pool prevents flooding when the lower hatch is open and features a smooth enter and exit transition.

Indicator Lighting

Lighting on Weapon Loaders, Junction Boxes and other devices inform you when systems are in use or need repair. Quickly check rooms with one of the many onboard camera systems to see status.

Terminal Command Required

The IMC RCS Terminal AI is required to toggle battery systems, charging and security features. Located in the command room this terminal allows the captain to change vessel lighting, lockdown sections of the vessel and control some system settings.

Multi-Cam Systems

Three separate camera systems allow the captain to view the vessels exterior, the maintenance crew to view repairable rooms and security to view sensitive areas. Located around the vessel the periscope controlled cameras easily switch with the click of a mouse.
